On the Recent Work

Mario Londoño's recent works, rather than being detached, are well distanced from the surrealist syntax that has accompanied him on his journey – that union of the umbrella and the sewing machine on the Lautremontian dissection table – now create a whole where the matter and color zones, by increasing the dimensions of his formats, become more pictorial. Color and brushstrokes that capture those amphibious territories in his work, appropriate a space where abstraction accompanies the figure in a muted dialogue, in dreams that yoke the seen objects and the visited glances.
